Description
We are all human beings. We have our own incentives to achieve goals in our lives. In the Space-game, incentive for progress depends mostly on how you decide to do space. SpaceX offers engineers of all ages the opportunity to be a part of something revolutionary, like making life interplanetary. NASA offers the best and brightest a chance to join the royal ranks of the United States space program to uphold and progress the legacy of this legendary organization. SpaceX opted to fail fast and learn faster, blowing up rockets in the search for reusability and preparing for interplanetary travel. NASA has history and is at the start of it's roughly seventh evolution with the Artemis Program and getting it's mega-moon rocket Space Launch System ready for Artemis 1. These are two different incentives towards space progress. We go over the novelty with each approach, and discuss the 'summer of hydrogen" which plagued NASA in the Space Shuttle era in the summer of 1990. This summer had months of delays due to unsolvable liquid hydrogen leaks. We review the publication from a NASA employee on what that was like, what they tried, and what they eventually realized from April - October troubleshooting leaks. This problem Artemis 1 is having is an old problem. One that NASA has to deal with because of their incentives. We get deep into the basics of how to approach any space program, the incentives your workforce has to make progress, and the challenge of "making it happen". https://www.republicworld.com/science/space/elon-musk-sets-ambitious-goal-for-spacex-in-2023-aiming-for-up-to-100-flights-articleshow.html The Summer of Hydrogen: https://ntrs.nasa.gov/api/citations/20080014345/downloads/20080014345.pdf Support the podcast: Get 20% OFF @manscaped + Free Shipping with promo code SPACE at MANSCAPED.com! #ad #manscapedpod Buy a 3D printed gift from our shop ag3dprinting.etsy.com Get a free quote on your next 3D printing project at ag3d-printing.com Donate at todayinspace.net
